Looks great. Are you going to be putting ATO container outside the stands?

Thanks.

Yep, I have some dead space under my desk right beside the stand. Gong to start with a 20 gallonish ATO container there.

Got a bunch of work done on the stand.

Top and bottom boards are done along with the main tray that will hold the sump and plumbing.

Panels are in the garage getting stained and magnets attached.

Got the stand skin finished. Woo Hoo!

Skin has multiple coats of stain on it. Used magnets (6 on side, 7 on front) to hold the panels on. Strong enough to prevent the kids from pulling panels off. Going to use childproof magnetic latches for the doors as well.

Canopy still needs to be built. That will start once I have the tank in hand.

Have all the pieces I need for now, hoping to get the tank in the next week. :big grin:
